Question 13

How is QuokkaGuide different from Google Maps audio?

Question 14

Do I need mobile data to use QuokkaGuide?

No! All tours can be downloaded in advance and used completely offline. Audio, maps, and GPS triggers all work without internet. This is especially useful for remote areas of Australia where cell coverage can be limited.

Question 15
